Designer bathroom lighting makes a stylish statement in the master bath and hallway bathrooms. Light reflects off mirrors and glass shower enclosures, making form matter as much as function when creating a lighting plan. To craft a bathroom light scheme balancing atmosphere with functionality, choose a blend of ambient and task lighting. Ambient lighting evokes feelings of tranquility, while task lighting eliminates glare, shadows, and color distortion — perfect for shaving, makeup application, and other detailed tasks.
Our eclectic assortment of table and wall lamps features both ornate, permanent fixtures and minimalist, portable solutions.
Please note: no lamps should be placed inside the shower or in close proximity to water sources. Always consult a certified electrician when installing lighting in your bathroom to ensure safety and compliance.

Wall lamps, also known as sconces, provide both ambient and task lighting in bathrooms of all sizes and configurations.
Our orb-like PH Hat Wall Lamps complement the streamlined, minimalist look of Modern-style bathrooms. The lack of hardware means the lamps won't compete with cabinet pulls, faucets, and other chrome and metal bathroom fixtures.
The rose-colored, opaque shade emits a relaxation-inducing ambient glow and tilts to provide direct light where needed. For the most significant light payoff, place the illuminated discs on either side of a vanity mirror or place one between two mirrors.
The VL 38 Wall Lamp also serves a dual purpose, providing ambient light while also featuring an adjustable brass arm for focused light.
Place wall lamps at eye level to prevent casting harsh glares and shadows over your face. Recessed wall lamps positioned near the shower stall and above the toilet will make it easier to maneuver these areas.
Temporarily altering the bathroom lighting scheme doesn't have to be a cumbersome task when you use portable lamps. The best part? You can place them almost anywhere. For instance, the Tomoshi and VL 45 Radiohus portable lamps are welcome additions on counters, shelves, and accent tables.
If having enough counter space is a concern, you can also hang these portable lamps from hooks, transforming them into pendant lights for overhead illumination.
